Wikipedia talk:Daily Mail

Redirects at WP:DAILYMAIL, WP:DAILY, MAIL WP:Dailymail, and WP:Daily mail
In this RfD:
 * Redirects for discussion/Log/2018 December 26

The consensus of the Wikipedia community was to redirect WP:DAILYMAIL, WP:DAILY MAIL, WP:Dailymail, and WP:Daily mail to
 * Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 220

Some editors have attempted to change the redirect to
 * Identifying reliable sources/Perennial sources

going against the consensus in the RfD. Please don't do that.

The many editors who have used this redirect (see the "what links here" page for each redirect) have pretty much all attempted to send readers at the Daily Mail RfC, not the perennial sources page (they tend to use WP:RSP when they want to send readers to that page) Many editors have written things like
 * "Per WP:DAILYMAIL, we don't consider that a reliable source."

or
 * "Daily Mail is not a RS as per WP:DAILYMAIL"

-- clearly wishing the reader to go to the page where it was decided, not to an explanatory supplement.

Please abide by the decision of the community and refrain from changing the redirects at WP:DAILYMAIL and WP:Dailymail.

Anyone reading this is free to post a new RfD if they think the community made the wrong decision. --Guy Macon (talk) 17:22, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
